Anna Vissi Live Explained
Live is the name of a live album by Greek singer Anna Vissi, released in 2004 in Greece and Cyprus. It is her second live album and it has gone Platinum.[1] It was also released as a live music DVD.
In 2019, the album was selected for inclusion in the Panik Gold box set The Legendary Recordings 1982-2019. The release came after Panik's acquisition rights of Vissi's back catalogue from her previous record company Sony Music Greece. This box set was printed on a limited edition of 500 copies containing CD releases of all of her albums from 1982 to 2019 plus unreleased material.
Background Information
All tracks of the album were recorded during Vissi's appearances in Diogenis Studio club, Athens, premiering on December 18, 2003. Featured artists were Nino, Constantinos Christophorou and Hi-5, though their own gigs were not included in the recording.
The release of the album followed a dispute between Angela Dimitriou and music composer Manos Koufianakis with Vissi's label over the inclusion of the live cover of the formers' hit song Pia Thysia in the CD's tracklist. Later print runs omitted the track, sporting an informational sticker on the front of the jewel case. In the Panik Records' re-release, the initial tracklist, including Pia Thysia, is restored.
